trinitom Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 I’m having a strange noise coming from the intake manifold, it's like a turbo death whine sound but it does it on tick over, not under boost! anyone have experienced this?

Andy Blyth Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 Could be a vacuum leak. Can you identify where on the manifold the noise is coming from? Have you made sure all nuts and bolts are tightened? All hose clips on properly? No split hoses? No hoses removed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No hoses removed? its coming from this area (red circle in picture). i had a fast search but can't find anything lose, this only happen when the engine is hot. the sound is annoying, it’s like you are blowing an empty wine bottle. http://img405.imageshack.us/img405/7593/componentlocations1.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest alan3579 Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 Im having the sane noise also, doesnt seem to effect performance. Could it just be the colder air, and the induction kit / pipe?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisB Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 wrong side of the engine for me its coming from same place as red circle in above picture Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLicense Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 I think it's probably the air coming through the idle control solenoid (Highlighted in yellow). If you give the throttle body a little rev whilst listening to it then the pitch will most likely change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisB Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 Im not sure about the others but its a little too loud for that on mine, certainly not a healthy noise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hackin_n_bashin Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 think you need to cut the pipe across, look at the clip and watch for a white substance popping out:d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trinitom Posted December 14, 2010 Author Share Posted December 14, 2010 only noticed this thread now, the car still makes that sound but to be honest i think it's coming from the timing belt zone. it only started when i replaced the belt and since there it never stopped. never had any problems anyway.
